Panos Parking Lot

Like Ajay sez, sign the petition to resist Pano's plan to tear down the Atwater House and put in a parking lot.

Linky-link-link:

I've only lived in Buffalo for 2 years now. My wife's family is from here, but we came for the schooling. I have really enjoyed Buffalo, and one of the things I have come to appreciate in my time here is the significance of Buffalo Architecture. Since being here I saw the Harbor Inn tore down. I've also seen some great restoration work. I'd like to see more. And a better mass transit system. Not that the current one isn't functional; but more pleasant. Resurrect the Buffalo Trolley System? Hmm...

yip fer soyeon

8*

Wow, Soyeon's journal freaked me out.

In the lab, no less. Then I came home and had to look at it again. And her entry about the photo critique is probably one of the best things I've read lately. Sums up a lot about the weird nature of graduate school...

Blackest Antics

Again, far too large for an (e:strip) sample, but here's a link to the latest... This is a demo version also; we're re-recording now that the arrangement is finalized...

I Think the Government Is Watching Me

Well, it's been too long, and I say that too much... . oh, well.

Given the current climate I couldn't wait to put out an ultra-raw super bootleg, straight off the working loop and raw vox, version of the latest DJ Funken Wagnalls feat. Cottonmouth track.

I Think the Governement is Watching Me (http://www.wdog.com/rider/swap/gov.mp3)

I can't fit a sample on (e:Strip), but it's a short track and about 1.5MB download.

Anyway, DJ Funken Wagnalls made a trip to Buffalo, and we recorded 12 songs in 4 days. Amazing, no? We're working on post-production now. It's going to be a good year for DJ FnW feat Cottonmouth, MC. Dave Logan is producing an animated followup to our first video, Futurology (http://www.wdog.com/dlogan/futurology), and it's looking farking incredible. Dave is a prodigy. And we'll have a new website launch in concert with the new album, which we're actually getting pressed and everything (via CafePress of course, ;). So it will be fun for all. Expect cool interactive goodies on the CD, too.

And to address some scary goings on this summer:

The Kurtz thing aside, has anyone heard about this? (http://www.sg1archive.com/nightmare.shtml) I mean, overzealous use of Patriot Act to investigate scientistic apparatus is one thing, but overzealous use of the Patriot Act to justify trashing a Stargate fansite owner's computer equipment on behalf of the MPAA?!? Holy crap. It's as if I feel some kind of brisk shiver which makes me less likely to post stuff to the Web, maybe better described as a _chill_ in the hot summer air... Or maybe that's just Buffalo...

Anyway, that's what I've been up to. What about you?

konspire[2b] crafty

has ne1 tried MUTE or konspire[2b]? MUTE is a super secure and anonymous P2P filesharing client and konspire[2b] is a broadcast solution. exciting stuff. here's a link...

Konspire[2b]http://konspire.sourceforge.net/

MUTE

Oh yeah, and the more crafty among you may be interested in this thing I just heard about: the iTMS-4-All Script.

Downhill Battle (http://www.downhillbattle.org/itmsscript/index.html) has released a script that allows users to surf the iTunes music store as if they're using iTunes. The creators want people to use the script in developing opensource applications. They suggest adding the ability for people using opensource filesharing clients like MUTE to use the iTunes interface to call up album and artist information as well as 30 second preview clips of songs found on P2P networks. Wow.

Torrential

To all of the unabashed sharers out there: Another source for the info you're not supposed to have. Banned Music (http://www.bannedmusic.org/index.php) is a site hosting BitTorrent downloads of illegal music. Right now they have The Grey Album, The Double Black Album, and the classic, Illegal Art compilation. This is all music that cannot legally be released due to copyright laws.

And for those otaku geeks on the Strip, check out AnimeSuki (http://www.animesuki.com) for fansubs of anime not available in the US, including the first-run tv series as they show on Japanese television. Pretty geekarific.

And for everything else, *wink* *wink*, there's SuprNova.org (http://www.suprnova.org).

Leave your Torrents open after you download!

the passion of shawnR

In 6th grade I was kicked out of the Catholic church and CCD in my hometown for drawing cat butts in the CCD workbooks and asking provocative questions in class. But it was the cat butt that pushed me over the limit...

Fat Bush

I wanted to make a banner for (e:strip), so I thought, well, who should be on it except the president? Of course! So I made him good and porky and put it into the banner. But then it got little and I thought I'd post the bigger version. Took me about 20 minutes to make the president fat like this... whee! No clone, stamp, or brush tools used...
